 Description of the problemI purchased 2006 jeep commander dec '06. Had continuous issues w/the performance -service dept can't fix the problem. Approx three months after purchase, i was pulling off from a parking space -car cut off completely. I assumed that i hit the gear or didn't have completely engaged. B/c a new car, i thought it was strange but not a real issue. In aug '06, taking my car in for routine service, backing up in the dealership lot & the car cut off completely. Added the request to have the issue checked. I explained this wasn't the 1st time the car cut off and there must be a problem. Was told that nothing found. In sept '06, i was driving to work in stop & go traffic - my car cut off completely. I was able to apply the hazard lights to warn other drivers. I was able to start the car and took it into the dealership for service. I explained that this was the 3rd time that the car completely shut off, and something needed to be done. I was told that they could not replicate the situation and was asked to pick up my car. I told the service advisor that i was not picking up my car until something was done. My car cuts off while driving! That is not safe. I can't wait until i am in a tragic accident to say see, it happened again. The service department reported that they contacted the star hotline and replaced the pcm and installed a control program. I have continued to experience stalling and hesitation while driving but the car has not completely shut off. I have no confidence in accelerating to merge into traffic, nor pass other vehicles. I feel totally vulnerable that the commander will shut off while driving. During my last scheduled maintenance 1/31/07, i informed the service advisor that i am still experiencing hesitation/stalling. They did not find anything. I have been advised to set up a time to leave my vehicle for overnight road test. *nm
